Run Chrome with remote debugging enabled in headless mode
google-chrome --headless --disable-gpu --remote-debugging-port=9292Connect to Chrome using the ChromeDevToolsClient class. The ChromeDevToolsClient can create multiple connections to separate instances of Chrome. Each connection results in a separate ChromeDevToolsSession.
// Create a client
ChromeDevToolsClient client = ChromeDevToolsClient.defaultClient();
// Connect to Chrome Dev Tools Running on port 9292 on your local machine
try (ChromeDevToolsSession session = client.connect("127.0.0.1", 9292)) {
// Control Chrome remotely
session.navigate("https://www.hubspot.com/");
}
// Close the client when your finished
client.close();The ChromeDevToolsSession class provides all methods for interacting with Chrome. There are synchronous and asynchronous versions available for each method.

Configuring ChromeDevToolsClient
You can construct your dev tools client with the following options:
ChromeDevToolsClient client = new ChromeDevToolsClient.Builder()
/*
* An instance of com.hubspot.horizon.HttpClient. The HttpClient is used to hit the devtools /json/list endpoint to grab the first available target id to control
* Default: the default com.hubspot.horizon.ning.NingHttpClient
*/
.setHttpClient()
/*
* The timeout for getting a valid response from the /json/list endpoint via http. If no valid response is received in this time a ChromeDevToolsException is thrown
* Default: 5 seconds
*/
.setSessionConnectTimeoutMillis()
/*
* A global timeout for any action performed in the client. If the client does not receive a response for an action taken in this amount of time
* a ChromeDevToolsException is thrown
* Default: 60 seconds
*/
.setActionTimeoutMillis()
/*
* An instnace of java.util.concurrent.ExecutorService which provides the thread pool for event listeners and any async actions performed in the client
* Default: A ThreadPoolExecutor with a max pool size of 10 threads
*/
.setExecutorService()
/*
* An instance of com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper responsible for (de)serializing the json sent to and received from Chrome.
* The default ObjectMapper for the client is configured with a custom deserializer for Chrome events. You will generally not need to update this
*/
